The Deposition (2012)
Dark and intense
I saw this movie at a private screening in N. Hollywood. Great, intense film!!!!
Music, SFX, Direction and story are all very original and unique. I give it two big thumbs up!
Former lovers ADAM and JILL reunite at a wedding reception in their rural Appalachian town. Although the two share a chemistry that persists despite their breakup, Jill is with another man, WAYNE. Adam and Jill slip away together for a tryst. As he drives, Adam professes his love for her but a sudden incident causes a violent car crash that kills Jill.
Struggling to recall the truth, Adam's flashbacks depict differing interpretations of his interaction with Jill that night. He knows that he never intended her harm, but he's unable to prove it. The emotionally draining series of depositions begin as Adam drifts through his lonely life, a shell of his former self, fueled only by a yearning to remember why they crashed.
With different eyewitnesses describing fragments of that night, his memories disjointed, and the threat of criminal charges, Adam is determined to uncover the truth despite his sorrow.
As Adam slowly descends into madness, Adam encounters an ethereal VISION OF JILL. His senses fractured, his mind then projects two DOUBLES OF HIMSELF, a pair of doppelgangers that represent his fractured and conflicting mindsets.
In her deposition, Jill's MOTHER recalls Adam's jealousy after their breakup that escalated in a physical violence. Worse still, Wayne gives his deposition - describing a confrontation he had with Adam over Jill.
Knowing that Wayne lied in an attempt to incriminate him, Adam sets out to kill Wayne for revenge.
